“local councils”... Gee is this anything like the “Rural Councils” established under the radar by BH0? You’d better believe the stage is being set in plain view.

London, England-In yet another outrageous piece of social engineering from our coalition government, pensioners will be encouraged to downsize to smaller properties allowing local councils to rent their homes out as council houses and manage the tenancy.
Local authorities will ‘help’ older people move from their homes into ‘more suitable accommodation’. Grant Schapps, the Housing Minister, who is a conservative member of parliament claims the scheme will solve a so-called ‘housing crisis’ as well as creating a system that will ‘permit access to various sources of wealth’ that are currently not being used to pay for care.
Read that as the elderly will have to raid their pension pots and hand over the equity in their homes - which they have spent a lifetime paying for – in order to put themselves into a care system which is notoriously unfit for purpose.
Despite having paid taxes all their lives, pensioners will be forced to run down their wealth while those that have squandered their money or lived off the state will get free care. The idea is to create more stocks of ‘affordable housing’ for younger families. This is a euphemism for subsidized houses for families that have deadbeat dads, single mothers with a battery of children from different fathers and other assorted welfare dependent cases that need ‘help’.

Watch out ,you might get what you're after
Cool babies, strange but not a stranger
I'm an ordinary guy
Burning down the houseHold tight, wait till the party's over
Hold tight, We're in for nasty weather
There has got to be a way
Burning down the house(Talking Heads - Burning Down the House)
Someone should photoshop tracer fire coming from the windows ;)
I’d have a bit more sympathy for elderly Brits if they hadn’t pretty much done this to themselves over the last sixty years. It’s just one of the neat things that happens once you ‘run out of other people’s money’.
My very first thought exactly.
"Rural communities are vital to the American economy - our small business owners create jobs that support families, our farmers and ranchers grow food that feeds the world and our work ethic is second to none. Investing in rural jobs will yield big returns for the entire American economy and it's good to see Washington finally taking notice," Baucus said. "I'll continue fighting to make sure Montana's unique needs are heard."
Max Baucus has been urging the White House Rural Council to visit his home state since it’s formation earlier this year. "Montana jobs rely on thriving rural communities. I'm glad to see Washington is finally taking notice of the vital role our rural communities play in our economy. But you can't truly understand the challenges faced in in rural America from desk in Washington. So I'm pushing the White House to bring the new Rural Council to Montana so it can see firsthand the unique challenges and opportunities facing folks from Sidney to St. Regis and everywhere in between and get to work for them," said Baucus in a June 9 press release. "
If you keep electing 'rats, you get what you deserve.
Took their guns long ago, and now just making room for the mooslimes.
No visible means of support
And you have not seen nothing yet
Fighting fire with fire....
Perfect!!!
LOL! That’s the first thing that came to my mind as well! Yuri Zhivago comes home and gets rebuked by the authorities for having so much house...which now belongs to “the people” and they are all over the place.
Pinging the Agenda 21 folks!
If you want to be on or off the Agenda 21 ping list, please notify me by Freepmail. It is a relatively low volume list in which we have been exploring the UN Agenda21 and related topics. We have collected our studies with threads, links, and discussions on the Agenda 21 thread which can be found here:

The minute they take our guns its over.
It’s about power and the socialist way. I hope that when they beg to be rescued, as we did for them in the 40’s, we say: “goog luck with that.”
Bump
“The minute they take our guns its over.”
The second anyone tries they are over.
“Don’t say that it can’t happen here”.
I agree with you and thank you for posting this thread, DCBryan. I have actually heard this sentiment at a Home Owner Association meeting from (obviously) Liberal lips. They felt it was “unfair” and “greedy” for people whose children had grown to stay in a four bedroom home. “The home should be sold to a family” and the retired residents should “go to Florida” or “nursing homes”. Needless to say, my jaw just dropped! So, yes... I believe the sentiment of this thread is already here. I also believe there will be some sort of “push” that homes be size appropriate for the “regular” people (Hollyweird and the elite will still be allowed mansions and huge estates). IMHO.
Great Britain has gone downhill so badly, the make the U.S. look like paradise.
About the claim that they are “wasting too many bedrooms.” There is only one obvious solution to that complaint and I wouldn’t put it past the Marxists there to implement it (sounds like a Moral Absolute issue). I have one question, can it happen in the United States?
Crowds of the un-treated and their families might then gather outside hospitals demanding care, picketing entrances, and sparking riots.
For those who choose not to purchase insurance and refuse to pay the penalty/fine, will the IRS create SWAT-like teams to arrest violators and seize property? Will neighbors sit idly by or create a gauntlet and "no-go" zones for ObamaCare enforcement that the Lamestream media can hype as gun-toting "militia" types and racists who just don't like a black man as President... yet another reason for gun control?
Holy cow! Where’s that picture of Hillary that was on Drudge? They could be sisters!
